That should get the job done! Thanks for sharing
Good looking looking jig
Who manufactures the hackle hair and does it have another name? I can't find it. Looks like great tail material.
That is a nice looking jig! Great job!
Loose neck hackle is what you want. It wont sound like a lot, i think its 1/2 oz bags but theres a ton of feathers in there... They are as light as a... Feather...Quote:

I used to use them to tie bluegill and bass poppers years ago, nice material to work with.

Here's a couple of more using the hackle hair with a feather on a 1/8 triangular head with number two hook.
Kind of rough looking, but fishable:

I like it. Looks like the hackle hair would make great tails on my nymphs and bluegill bugs. Trying to get my local shop to order some. Thanks for the pics.
Thanks again for showing that hackle hair. Have some ordered and a PEAK vise!
Congrats on the new Peak vise. Love mine and just used it to tie up some black and chartreuse jigs.
Thanks. My buddies Sport Shop doesn't carry these products but one of his vendors does, so he made arrangements for me! Excited to try the new material and that PEAK vise.
You're welcome MCG1.
Hope it works out for you. It definitely has some good qualities.
